My Father's House or Place of Business?

[S] John 2:16 --
 ¹⁶and to those who were selling the doves He said, "Take these things away; stop making My Father's house a place of business."

[O] The comparison between "My Father's house" and "place of business" is what intrigued me as I was reading this familiar passage.  Same physical location can be used for different purposes and that's what was happening here.  The issue was that place which had a purpose of being My Father's house (sanctuary or church in today's term) became a place of doing business.  I am wondering whether I am changing the purpose of "My Father's house" I am supposed to steward into a place of my own business of interest.  As I can see from here, Jesus does not like that type of changes.  I also took a look from an opposite angle where my place of business transforming into "My Father's house."  God likes this type of transformations.  In fact, He spent a lot of time in the marketplaces converting people as His disciples.  Paul in the New Testament also did this as well.  So, while I need to be sensitive about keeping the purpose of My Father's house, I also need to excel in transforming the places I do my own business -- work, neighborhood, gym, sports coaching, etc.

[A] Make Sunday a holy day set aside for family worship time at church and through all other activities.  Continue to carry on that spirit into Monday through Friday when I'm at my own places of business so I can be the influencer of people around me right there.

[P] Dear God, I want to follow the footsteps of Your message here where I would detest converting your sanctuary into a place of business while I would devote all of my efforts to turn my places of business into places of Your presence.  I am so thankful for giving me such a passion to live out my life for that purpose.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
